As a matter of fact, this organism was a rotifer of the genus
Collotheca. Thanks to Dr. Nomdedeu. Thereafter, I was able to find a
lot of infos about that genus on the web (even very nice movies of
different species). I will try to determine the species with some
publications and papers on rotifers in Canada of which I found the
references.
